Your not serious?

1993 Honda Civic specs, auto safety at Edmunds

That cars 2100 lbs. Thats 780lbs heavier. In terms of ET, every 100lbs is roughly a tenth of a second or 2mph (also roughly). Thats a .8 1/4 mile difference and a 16mph, give or take for both.

Please tell me your kidding?

LMAO Apples to oranges. If you went 7.0 and did the ET thats in your sig. Your cars simply light, not really powerful. Nigels car went 123mph letting out and getting back into it because it locked him out of second real bad. On that 123mph run he only went 94mph in an 8th. His 7.49 run he went 100mph in an 8th. Its a 130mph car easily with a few passes. 130 > 125 simple as that. And its full interior and probably 700+ lbs heavier.

^^slow, no matter how you want to put it.


In gotboost's defense, he did not say what honda. The 09 civic weighs 2700-2800 depending on what trim you get. But yeah, my eg hatch weighs around 2000 lbs. gutted, so that would be a big dif.

Says the dude with probably 10 grand in an all motor setup that went 8mph faster then my car lmao.

Nigels car is stock motor, from the pan to the VC, stock axles, just a bolt on 30r kit, and your basic supporting mods. And it beat an R6 down the highway (exhaust and a tune) with a terrible clutch setup that wouldnt allow for WOT shifting. Oh and did i mention i was at the shop 3 days later when he did a leakdown test? He had 95% leakage in cylinder 2. And i swear on my life thats the gods honest truth. The car was not driven after he ran the bike because it was tore apart getting a twin disk.

People on this forum are so quick to point a finger and say thats slow when they have NOTHING in comparison. Id like to see half you build a car that would beat any type of bike down the highway in a car that weighs 3k lbs.

^^ I woulnd't call me quick at pointing the finger if that's what you're doing bud; perhaps you were refering to someone else. IF he runs 7.5 in the 1/4, that's the same time frame I run, and it would be a dead even race, but I'd probably beat him if you are seriously saying he only runs 7.5 I do have something in comparison and that's what's funny, a 30psi 30r that only runs 7.5 is not impressive at all. The hatch pulled a 7.7 on my timeslip from rockingham and that was with only 4 runs on tiny slicks.

How much power is this slow car making anyways? 450whp? 500?

LMAO Thats why i said apples to oranges. You cant compare your car to his when your nearly a 1/2 ton lighter. My hatch went 8.5 and thats quicker then a friends 322whp LS1. But again, how can i compare a 2100lbs car to a 3400lbs car.

You also cant compare your time with his, since he went 11mph faster then you, obviously his car has ALOT more potential. I guess you just dont understand.

The car made 416whp.
